• Lead on implementation of learning arcs on particular sub-questions of the learning agenda, including conducting research, facilitating peer-exchange, and distilling important insights to share with the wider Network

• Oversee translation and adaptation of content to various languages

Monitoring and Reporting

• Interviewed a practitioner from an action research project in Malawi, as part of the production of a spotlight video to be featured on the learning agenda webpage.
• Coordinated with vendors and submitted invoices for simultaneous language interpretation for a virtual learning event for Network members across several continents.

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent qualification (for example, JD or LLB) in a relevant field preferred.
• Skilled communicator for learning: You’re skilled at being able to distill and communicate various kinds of knowledge, information, and experience in accessible, practitioner-friendly formats.
